Minister for Transport John Robertson said the new buses will be built with the latest technology. “The 12.5 metre, air-conditioned, low-floor, rigid buses are the latest and most fuel efficient diesel bus models available, developed by Volvo and Scania,” Mr Robertson said. These new buses are over and above the 1000 buses the Government will purchase over ten years under the Metropolitan Transport Plan
